Wednesday saw Maxine much better, but still testing postive for covid.  I was still firmly testing negative, so thought that I could go out annoy the public again.  So it was off to open up for the latest ESNG meeting. … Continue reading →

Progress continued with the new ESNG fiddle yard this afternoon.  We’ve probably got the section switches sorted out, and Derek found some excellent toggle switches of indeterminate vintage (cost 6/- or so.)  A pleasant afternoon, and we’d have got more … Continue reading →
